Abstract
A method for channel prediction for uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) systems for Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) fronthaul Split 7.2 networks enables prediction of a channel that is seen by the UL slot. The pre-processing matrix is computed by the distributed unit (DU) based on this predicted channel and sent to the radio unit (RU) for minimizing the effects of channel aging. A channel corresponding to sounding reference signal (SRS) symbol closest to uplink slot being decoded can be predicted from previous SRS symbols and can be used as a combining matrix. Alternatively, the channel of the uplink slot itself can be predicted from past SRS symbols, and a combining matrix can be generated based on the predicted channel.
